I think that was the first *-on-1 break I’ve seen this season. I was almost afraid Wilson was going to pull up for the ju-OH FOR FUCK’S SAKE HOW MANY TIMES CAN YOU LET RONDO JUST BASKET TOSS IN LAYUPS??

Z, I think the game against the Lakers is going to be a lot uglier. The Celtics missed a lot of open shots today. Today’s effort was good (especially on the 2nd of a back to back), but the Lakers are a much better team with Gasol back. Hope you have fun though and that the game isn’t a 20+ point blowout.

“the real question is why didn’t this team play this hard for the first 10 games? ”

Amen. They played 6 out of their last 7 at home and won 1. And now 4 out of the next 5 teams they play are playoff and/or elite teams. They’ve dug a huge hole due to that stretch of putrid play that’s gonna be very hard to climb out of. It’s a shame because a lot of the East teams aren’t exactly tearing it up lately, so they could easily be in the mix.

AL, I want to see Duhon getting less minutes too, but I’m guessing that Nate had to get out of the coach’s doghouse first before earning his trust (plus it doesn’t help that Nate is atrocious on D). And he doesn’t trust Douglas enough to run the show on his own in limited minutes, which I do think there’s some justification for.

But by the end of this road trip, if Duhon is still getting 40+ minutes, I’m going to be incredibly annoyed. Let Hughes and Douglas play together if necessary for 15 to 20 minutes a game.

What show does Duhon run, the Twilight Zone?? So many times in the 4th quarter he dribbled the ball for almost the entire shot clock and gave it up to someone who had to force a horrible shot. Hell at the end of OT Hughes was the player running the pnr with Lee not Duhon yet Duhon I believe was still in the game during that possession.

Nate annoys the crap out of me but at least he is a major threat on offense and hell he is fun to watch at times. Last year he actually played very good running the point when Duhon was out. I would love it if Nate and Douglas played all the PG minutes but I know barring an injury to Duhon that will never happen.

The title of this article says it all, “Passing on Jennings could cost Knicks James”….

Owen, I posted a couple of days ago how totally different the Knicks season would be right now if they had picked Jennings. And also how much more attractive we would be to FA’s. Every time I look at a Bucks box score, it just hurts, and he’s showing game after game that he’s no fluke. I guess we know how Dumars felt picking Darko over Anthony. Bosh and Wade – it’s the gift that keeps on giving.
